My son wanted a smart grill and I really didn’t understand all the neat things you can do. You can get notifications right to your phone about temperature, when to flip the meat, when food is done. It really is amazing. This grill is huge. Two levels for grilling. There is plenty of room on the sides for prepping and serving. The only downside is putting the grill together which takes quite a while…but you would have that with any of these big grills.
